A Curious Floating Island.

Henry Lake Is one Of the wonders Of
the Rocky mountains. Directly on the
summit Of the continental divide, in a de
precision or gap called Targee's pass, is a
body of water that was given the above
name in honor Of an old trapper who
made his home on its borders for several
years in the enjoyment of sweet solitude.
Henry's Lake is in oval shape and has
an ARA of forty square miles. 1t is en-
tirely surrounded by what seems to he
solid land, and one readily concludes that
il ha. no outlet On the west side lies
level meadow, which floats on the wa
ter, and the hidden outlet is beyond il.
Near the rim Of the basin, which at no
distant day must have been the pebbly
beach of the lake, is shallow pool, out
from which flows a creek-the source Of
the north fork of Snake river.
A species Of blue joint grass Of luxuriant
growth floats upon the water and sends
ont a mass of large hollow white roots,
which form mat SO thick and firm that a
horse can walk with safety over the
natural pontoon. The decayed vegetation
adds to the thickness of the mat and forms
mold in which weeds, Willows and
small trees take root and grow. Back
from the new border the new land is firm
and supports pine and aspen trees Of small
growth
An island of the same turf formation
floats about the lake. The soating body
of land is circular and measures 800 feet
in diameter. A willow thicket thrives in
the center, interspersed with small aspens
and dwarf pines. The little trees catch
the breeze and are the sails that carry the

which he was wonderfully expert. He
juggled with balls and knives and forks
very skillfully. indeed, and had u pack Of
cards which he tossed in the air, causing
them to vanish and reappear apparently
at will.
The most thrilling of his feats consisted
in driving threaded darning needle
through his arm, pulling it out on the
side opposite its entrance without draw
ing u drop of blood. This performance
was the climax of his show, and when II
was done another Chinaman went around
and gathered i'll contributions. The crowd
settled up. evidently expecting other feats
to follow. When the last copper had
been extracted the pile was handed to the
juggler. who held il in his hand, for all to
see that it was there, and then put his
hand To his mouth. When he opened the
hand again it was empty, and so was the
mouth, which he held gaping like a caverI
